nuqta-e-injimaad ko pahunchaa — Nazia Nazi

aane vaali ruto sabz rakhnaa qabaa
ghuncha-e-dil khizaan se pareshaan hai

guzartaa jaa rahaa hai vaqt juun juun
rag-e-jaan mein utarte jaa rahe ho

use kaho ki natija koi na niklegaa
use kaho ki mohabbat kaa imtihaan na le

nazar-andaaz karnaa to bahut aasaan hai lekin
nazar-andaaz hone se bahut taklif hoti hai

un ko mahsus kyon nahin hotaa
dil taDaptaa hai itni shiddat se

pahle apne the ab paraae hain
lafz naaraaz ho gae mujh se

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

husn jalva dikhaa gayaa apnaa
ishq baiThaa rahaa udaas kahin

koi ilaaj-e-gham-e-zindagi bataa vaaiz
sune hue jo fasaane hain phir sunaa na mujhe

tumhaari chaukhaTon ke dipakon mein
hamaare aansuon se raushni hai

main jab bhi ghar se nikaltaa huun raat ko tanhaa
charaagh le ke koi saath saath chaltaa hai
